The loss of the headquarters will affect Russia’s ability to command its forces in the Lugansk region.

Ukraine fired British cruise missiles at Russian military headquarters in occupied Lugansk .

Sky News writes about this , citing a source in military circles. It is noted that the attack was carried out by Storm Shadow cruise missiles launched by Ukrainian aircraft. The defeat of the command base is a “heavy blow” for the Russians.

“This strike contributes to Ukraine’s campaign to liberate the Luhansk region from the illegal invasion of the Russian Federation and prevent further Russian advances into Ukraine,” the source said.

According to the source, who shared the information on condition of anonymity, the loss of the headquarters will affect Russia’s ability to command its forces in the Lugansk region.

“Strikes on Russian military command centers create anxiety among the Russian ground forces. The destruction of such a headquarters could paralyze military decision-making for the next month,” the source said.

The Ukrainian operation also exposed the limitations of Russian air defense, the source said.

“The destruction of this headquarters would be a heavy blow to the Russian army and demonstrates that Ukraine still retains the ability to target occupiers anywhere,” the source said.
